Your elective in Foča
The University Hospital Foča is the teaching hospital of the Faculty of Medicine Foča (University of East Sarajevo), an official contract partner of Medschool Experts. Short distances and small teams mean you are part of the ward from day one, not a visitor at the back of the room.
Foča lies on the Drina river in eastern Bosnia and Herzegovina, surrounded by national parks and rafting country. Living costs are among the lowest in Europe, and supervisors communicate with elective students in English.
